Really weird how having a protein shake with unsweetened almond milk at bedtime gets me into the 5’s
Gym before work this morning
Have a good day everyone

4.4 this morning after washing my hands. 5.5 before I washed them. Also put hand cream on just before bed last night (the skin on my hands is falling apart spectacularly just now, as it always does in cold/dry weather)

I might have to do another test with the hand cream - I didn't really suspect it of evil intent as it's a completely bland and neutral one, but I suspect there's something in there that ups the number.

Go Team D. Every day managing the beast inside is like winning your own Superbowl. @mojo37 you are welcome. @DEBBIESCOTT I won't need to shift more blocks today then since you've done that part. @Estragon hope the optician goes well - if you see a party do let u-know-oo what they look like. Use my average Stabbo fbg since we're mates. Meh, but I'm still here.

@ianpspurs you could technically have the day off today, I’ve done more than enough for both of us this morning

4.9 this morning but I think these lower numbers may have a limited life - got some new test strips yesterday.
